What is the chance of a jaguar having a black jaguar?
The chance of a jaguar having a black offspring, often referred to as a melanistic jaguar, depends on the genetic makeup of the parents. Melanism in jaguars is caused by a recessive allele, so if at least one parent is a black jaguar (homozygous for the melanistic trait) or carries the recessive allele (heterozygous), there is a possibility of producing black cubs. However, if both parents are non-melanistic, the chance of having a black jaguar is extremely low. Overall, the likelihood varies based on the genetic diversity and breeding conditions of the jaguar population.

If you have 2 melanistic parents, the skin will be more dense, darker than with one melanistic parent. Jaguars still have the markings which can be seen in good lighting.
